About This Property
Enjoy sweeping views of the Gulf and its beautiful sandy beaches from this spacious penthouse residence at Villa di Lancia, an exclusive Gulf-front condominium community on Longboat Key. With just 38 residences set within approximately seven acres of beautifully landscaped grounds and 400 feet of beachfront, Villa di Lancia offers a level of privacy and exclusivity that is increasingly difficult to find. This three-bedroom, three-bath residence offers 2,445 square feet of living space, soaring 9'9" ceilings, and an expansive floor plan designed to take full advantage of its exceptional coastal setting. The main living and dining areas open onto a 195-square-foot balcony directly overlooking the Gulf, with a generous, covered area for shaded outdoor enjoyment. The primary suite also enjoys beautiful Gulf and beach views, while the two additional bedrooms look east across the golf course toward Sarasota Bay and the downtown Sarasota skyline. The second bedroom features an ensuite bathroom and walk-in closet, while the third bedroom, currently configured as a den, can easily be returned to its original use. Owned and meticulously maintained by the original owner, the residence is offered turnkey furnished and presents an excellent opportunity for a buyer to enjoy the property as it is or introduce their own design preferences over time. Interior features include a natural gas fireplace, solid-core doors, wood cabinetry, stone countertops, and a well-appointed kitchen with Shaker-style cabinetry, granite counters, a central island with pull-out drawers, and a built-in planning desk. The generous proportions and flexible floor plan provide considerable scope for those wishing to create a more contemporary interior. Villa di Lancia is a gated, beachfront community with a staffed gatehouse, direct beach access, a heated Olympic-length swimming pool and spa, Har-Tru tennis courts also marked for pickleball, a fitness center, sauna, and clubhouse. Onsite management and maintenance services complement the beautifully maintained grounds and extensive amenities. The residence also includes tandem garage parking accommodating two vehicles, a private storage unit, and access to an onsite EV charging station. Ideally located on the southern end of Longboat Key, Villa di Lancia is convenient to the restaurants and boutiques of St. Armands Circle, downtown Sarasota's cultural attractions, and the area's renowned boating, golf, and recreational opportunities. An exceptional opportunity to own a generously proportioned Gulf-front penthouse in one of Longboat Key's most established and intimate beachfront communities.
